Mary Elizabeth Grimes Shares How Marian Middle School Is Breaking the Cycle of Poverty Through Education

“Middle school is a pivotal time in which girls find their voice, learn what a leader is, learn how to advocate for themselves and others, and learn the value of hard work. Because we’re so closely attuned to our students, we’re able to immediately see if a student is struggling, or conversely, excelling beyond her peers.” -Mary Elizabeth Grimes.

Marian Middle School successfully provides the balance of a challenging curriculum, mental health wellness, and academic support to its students. By the numbers, last year 100% of Marian’s alumnae in high school graduated, and 93% went on to post-secondary programs – both rates vastly exceed their national peers.
